Going deeper into Tangerine Dream's soundtracking heyday and finding more and more to love. I remember being disturbed by Firestarter as a kid, and yet the musical cues made no lasting impression. Funny how serene, gauzy, and un-fiery these themes are. And yet, they do capture the spookiness of a kid with destructive supernatural powers.

A series of terrific collaborations highlight this May 6, 2013 edition of New Music Monday - beginning with Brian May's out-there turn with those pioneering space-music gurus in Tangerine Dream. Patty Griffin has emerged with a new studio effort that includes several tunes alongside Robert Plant. And, in what may be our favorite of them all, Robben Ford sets a [...]
Rod Stewart is rocking again, even as Queen's Brian May gets himself shot out into space with Tangerine Dream. Meanwhile, Patty Griffin is collaborating with Robert Plant - this time on some new music. We're also vibing on fresh stuff from those lovable bluegrass goofballs the Austin Lounge Lizards, blues legend James Cotton (he's got a bunch of Allman Brothers [...]
This week is about getting back to normal after four days of lighting it up at all the fauxchella pool and after parties. To counterbalance the weekend's merriment, here's a collection of tunes that bounces around from chill trap, chill step and vintage chillout sounds…a little something to get you back into the swing of things. Really loving the Cashmere Cat's stuff right now and I got inspired by our friend and champion selector Dennis Kane's sleazed out disco jam picks for Strut Records (you can check out the post here ) and included a Double Fantasy track from [...]
Ambient music, avant-garde - whatever musical tag you want to hang on it won’t be too far off, as Tangerine Dream takes us way out in the deepest outer reaches of space rock. Zeit was a drummer-less affair, so we’re talking heavily atmospheric, not very melodic, beyond-Pink Floyd, early-electronic music here. Simply put: think an amalgam of Floyd’s A Saucerful [...]

We all want so much man, over achievement and extreme ambition are glorified and admired almost universally these days but have you ever stopped to ask why?... Hustle, hustle, hustle. Grind, grind, grind. Why does everyone got hustle on their mind?" MIA was something else back then, I remember first hearing that hook and questioning everything. I won't get into all that right now now but always remember to look around your environment and question what you see. Just because everyone is doing something, just because it's tradition, [...]
Tangerine Dream has pulled out of Yes' Cruise to the Edge, just weeks before its March 25, 2013 launch, after band founder Edgar Froese was injured in a nasty fall.

A Retroview Review. ------------------------------ ------------------------------ -------------------- Luke here, talking about one of my new favorite movies, The Keep . Gotta be honest, I added it to my queue purely because of how badass the poster is. I was not disappointed. The Keep , adapted from an F. Paul Wilson novel, feels an awful lot like a book. Several storylines are established, and we [...]

"Ebondàzzar" was quite an obscure/rare release brought out by Australian label Cement Records in 1980 from a duo hailing from South Australia. Robert Reekes-Parsons and Paul Fisher make up Peak, with drumming assistance from fellow drummer John Haffert for the album. Only one release was ever made - no CD reissue exists. However, "Ebondàzzar" was later reissued in Germany by Innovative Communications in 1983. The styling of Peak is quite experimental, spacey, krauty, proggy, etc. A nice flow of soundscapes; very Tangerine Dream-esk. MP3: Peak - Encounter MP3: [...]
